Psalms 119:135
133 Order my steps in Your word; let no sin rule over me.
134 Redeem me from the oppression of man, that I may keep Your precepts.
Make Your face shine upon Your servant, and teach me Your statutes.
136 My eyes shed streams of tears because Your law is not obeyed.
137 Righteous are You, O LORD, and upright are Your judgments.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
